    And this ladies and gentlemen, is why we play games at 1am and fuck up our sleep schedule

    On the rare occasion I decide to do a group dungeon in ESO, I feel like I get a text from my husband “wanna go to the store.” Every. Time.

    And it’s hard to explain that I can’t just quit right now, it wouldn’t be fair to the nice little people in my PC.

          I tried tanking a few times. It’s hard ass work if you don’t have every single mob location memorized.

          Healings fun though. People actually thank you some times. But yeah I’m just DPS loser most of the time.

            A few times when I first started engaging in multiplayer stuff, I forgot to unequip the Ring of the Pale Order which prevents being healed. Oopsie daisie.

      I use to wonder the same thing with the GF when it came to Zelda. It always seemed she was in a part of the game she couldn’t pause.

      One day she showed me the game play and I couldn’t believe the amount of loading and dialog scenes that modern games sit through these days.

          Ha that I suspected but I’m the same way. I wanted to finish what I was in the middle of. Mind you there was no sleep mode on my Sega. At least with the emulators you can save state now.

    This is my whole life.

    I go out of my way to make sure everything is good and then start my game. Suddenly nothing is good haha.

    Been trying to wake up two hours before everyone, everyone just started waking up two hours earlier lol.

    I love my family though. I knew what I was getting into.

        Haha nothing that exciting, and maybe even a stretch to call it “software”

        Mostly just some python and jinja for klipper 3d printers and some guides and stuff for the same.

        I’ve been working on a big project to add a lot of functionality through a python extension that is traditionally done somewhat manually with macros and jinja. The idea is to make it easier for new/inexperienced users to handle functions like filament runout/changes and preprint steps like heat soaking and generating a bed mesh on any printer without needing to understand jinja or gcode.

          As someone with a 3D printer, thank you for your service.

          I don’t have issues with the things you’ve mentioned, but because less knowledgeable people have gotten into 3D printing, the market for such products is thriving, so I get to enjoy it because people who know less about it are doing it because of the efforts of people like you.

          I appreciate it.

    Every god damn time. Whether it’s sitting down to work on something or to play a game, the wife needs something. Hell… even my work is the same. It’s an easy job with random amounts of downtime but the moment I decide to start cleaning or just scroll lemmy on my phone suddenly everyone needs help.

    Conveniently enough (at least in this case) “everyone in my house” boils down to just me.
